 * Keep: Passes WP:ATHLETE. Schuy m 1  ( talk ) 18:51, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Can both of you guys explain how he passes WP:ATHLETE, he never played a game in the NFL, which is the highest level of the sport. Secret account 21:30, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes, I can. I shouldn't have to explain it when you can just read it. WP:ATHLETE says "People who have competed at the fully professional level of a sport" which he has played in two professional teams. Schuy m 1  ( talk ) 21:44, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Vote changed to delete: per Nyttend. I barely ever read infoboxes. Schuy m 1  ( talk ) 21:50, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
 * He never played a regular season game for these teams, he only tried out for them and didn't make the cut. NFL.com doesn't have him in playing a single game. Secret account 21:51, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Why are you still going on about it when I changed my vote to delete? Schuy m 1  ( talk ) 21:57, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Edit conflect that's what happened. Secret account 21:58, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails WP:ATHLETE, as he has never played for these teams. Look at the infobox: he hasn't appeared in any games.  That, not simply signing with a team, is the standard for WP:ATHLETE.  Nyttend (talk) 21:48, 8 December 2008 (UTC)


 * He didn't "try out" for them, he was a member of the team.► Chris Nelson Holla! 22:02, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
 * The infobox and the article doesn't say that.  Schuy m 1  ( talk ) 22:04, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Can you give the evidence for that, NFL.com has him in playing 0 games, which means that he fails WP:BIO until he plays one game. Secret account 22:05, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
